“Oh, wait, was she a great big fat genetic time-bomb person?”

Nice brooch she, er, they are wearing.

EDITOR: I’m sorry, Mr Foster, the reading public just won’t know what a morphodite is. For that matter, neither do I. What is it?
FOSTER: It’s a sort of genetic…time-bomb… person.
EDITOR: Ah, then that shall be the subtitle!

I can’t tell which is wackier, the cover or the subtitle.

Gernade!

Wonder what Whelan would have done with blond hair instead of black and would ABBA have sued as a result.

I don’t yhink english was th subtitler’s first language.
If subtitler is an actual job.

Do we have a tag for lens flare, or is that too much like a ting?

Regeneration gone horribly wrong–Sarah Jane Smith must find the real Dr. Who in “The Genetic Time-Bomb Person!”

A “genetic time-bomb person”? So if you ask them the wrong question on your first date, they flounce out and everyone within a 50-mile radius dies of leukemia?
June 25th, 2011 at 10:44 am
INHERITED leukemia! This is not a genetic atomic-bomb person we are speaking of!
June 25th, 2011 at 1:22 pm
Ooh, yes, can we have a Lens Flare tag, please? Not as exciting as TING! but equally common on SF covers since the invention of Photoshop.

I can’t make up my mind whether the face on the left is Terence Stamp or Arthur Mullard.

I mean come on, they maybe a four headed mutant or Genetic Time-Bomb person, but at least they could smile for their photo.

Lens flare done! A long forgotten tag now resurrected

#7 – Of course it’s an actual job! My grandfather worked at a subtitle factory for forty years. He was the president of the local chapter of the subtitlers’ guild. He used to tell me “Tommy Noir, always remember: subtitling is an honest day’s work for a young career person.”

I stand corrected. I hope you didnit take his advice though, ‘cos it’s clearly all done abroad now.

Sing along, folks:
Is this a real book
or is this a fantasy?
caught in an art mess
a lame escape from reality…

You would be grumpy too if you lived half your life under a big black cloak in somebody’s armpit waiting for your turn to drive the spaceship.

After the genetic time-bomb person blew up, he actually blew up to form Siamese-quintuplets all attached at the head…They are now known as “the genetic time-bomb people”.

hey, this book was actually a pretty good read! I bought it BECAUSE of this cover!
May 15th, 2013 at 12:42 pm
Yesss! A victory for Morphocover!
